In this study, collagen peptides were prepared from chicken bone by enzymatic hydrolysis, and the effect and mechanism of action of orally administered collagen peptides on alleviating skin aging induced by UV combined with D-galactose were investigated
Comparative Antioxidant Profiles Property Glutathione (GSH) Ergothioneine (EGT) Redox activity Very high, dynamic Moderate, stable Chemical stability Low (constantly recycled) Very high Specific transporter No Yes (OCTN1/SLC22A4) Tissue accumulation Limited High (brain, liver, eyes) Mitochondrial protection Indirect (via GPx) Direct DNA protection Mitochondrial (primary) Nuclear and mitochondrial Intestinal degradation Partial Very low Human synthesis Yes (liver) No (dietary only) Mushrooms as the Only Known Source of Both Molecules While glutathione is also found in other foods asparagus, avocado, red meat ergothioneine is found almost exclusively in mushrooms
Quality product that made from combination of L- Glutathione, Vitamin-C, Vitamin E, Kojic Acid, etc
using it for a multi-dose vial increases contamination risk
